India he registered a career-high 49 wins against West Indies in the first Women’s T20I in Navi Mumbai. Opting to bat first, India set a tough target of 196, aided by Jemimah Rodrigues‘ scintillating 73 off 35 balls and Smriti Mandhana‘s brisk 54. West Indies, though Deandra Dottin’s burst on 52, fell short on 146/7 as Tita Sadhu and Deepti Sharma he shone with the ball. The win gives India a 1-0 lead in the three-match series, setting the tone for what promises to be an exciting contest.
India’s innings was anchored by Rodrigues, who hit a stunning 73 runs from just 35 balls, including nine boundaries and two sixes. He showed good timing and positioning, especially in the middle races, leading to high scores. Mandhana gave a solid start with a brilliant 54 off 33 balls, smashing four fours and two sixes. The duo added a vital partnership that helped India excel in a quiet batting line-up. Despite losing wickets late on, the team posted a formidable 195/4, which posed a tough question for the visitors.
Sadhu’s innings rattled the West Indies’ top order, as he claimed figures of 3/37, including the crucial wicket of Hayley Matthews and Child Joseph. Deepti also strengthened the bonds with her money, carrying 2/21 and ensuring that there is no room for recovery. Radha Yadav‘late batting also helped, as the Indian bowlers worked consistently, forcing the opposition into mistakes. The action of the bowlers successfully defended the target, giving India a complete victory.
West Indies’ chase was led by Dottin, who smashed 52 off 28 balls, including four boundaries and three sixes. His aggressive performance gave the visitors hope, especially between the overs. However, lack of support from the rest of the batsmen left the team struggling. Child Joseph followed by a quick-fire 49, but steady wickets and India’s chase kept the chase from progressing. In the end, West Indies finished on 146/7, less than a target.

A good team win. Finally free. 49 runs limit. The fielding needs to be improved but the bowlers have done well in difficult situations. There was a lot of dew. Jemi & Mandhana, well done to post all that first. #INDvWI
